PSA screening recommendations (USPSTF and AUA)
USPSTF – D rating (don’t recommend for anyone)
AUA – (q2 years okay)
<40 no one
40-54 doesn’t recommend (unless family hx or AA)
Recommend for 55-69
>70 or <10yrs life expectancy, doesn’t recommend
NCCN –
45-49 baseline PSA (<1 repeat at 50, > 1 q1-2 yrs)
50-70 PSA<3 cont screening q1-2yrs, 3-10 Bx or PCA3
>70 continue in very healthy men
Risk Factors for Prostate Cancer
Family Hx – 1st degree 2x, 2 1st degree 9x
AfroAmerican>Caucasians>Asians (Highest in Scandinavia lowest in Asia)
Fat, vasectomy, Sex does not make a difference
What is the PPV of DRE for CaP Dx?
15-25% of men with abnormal DRE have prostate cancer
Prostate cancer risk reduction
PRIMARY
SELECT – (Vit E and Selenium) vit E increases risk by 17%, no diff with Selenium
Finasteride – PCPT decreased risk 24.8% but increased risk of HG. No difference in survival
Dutasteride – REDUCE decreased risk of CaP 22-24% (not HG)
Vit D and omega 3 don’t reduce risk
TERTIARY
REDEEM – Dutasteride prevented localized prostate cancer progression (HR 0.62)
ASAP/HGPIN on biopsy, what next?
ASAP - Repeat biopsy within 3-6 months with extended template.
HGPIN – follow with PSA and DRE
PSA Surrogates
fPSA (>50yrs, PSA 4-10, nl DRE) - <10%-25% increased risk
PCA3 (following neg prostate biopsy) >35
PSAD 0.15 (Low/Int vs. High risk)
PSAV >2 (Low/Int vs. HR)
PSADT 3mo (high risk), 15 mo (low risk)
Where is prostate cancer in the prostate?
PZ 70%
TZ 20% (BPH)
CZ 10%
Prostate cancer Histology
Adenocarcinoma: Acni (most common), Ductal (aggressive, in ducts to urethra), Mucinous (secrete mucus, not in ducts)
Transitional Cell – very aggressive. Operate
Neuroendocrine – poor prog. Operate
Gleason Scoring System
Most common + 2nd most common
1 – Normal prostate tissue
2 – Well formed glands, larger with increased stroma. Uniform gland size
3 – Recognizable glands with darker cells, some invasion into BM, variation in gland size
4 – Few recognizable ducts, cells invading. Gland fusion (no stroma)
5 – No recognizable glands, sheets
Active Surveillance Trials
SPCG-4 (Holmberg trial) – pre-PSA RP vs. WW, improved OS and CSS (0.56) in men <65, decreased need for ADT and mets in all men. NNT 8 (4 if < 65). Critique – on 12% with cT1 disease
PIVOT – post PSA, reduced all-cause mortality in PSA>10 and possibly intermediate and high risk cancers
Adjuvant Treatments to RP
Neoadj – decreases +SM but doesn’t affect outcomes, confuses path
Adj ADT – No benefit to ADT for gross +LN, Messing Trial showed immediate ADT for micro +LN improves survival
Adj XRT – SWOG 8794 Immidiate adj XRT for +SM or pT3 improved survival, Bolla EORTC 22911 same study improves PFS (PSA cutoff 0.3 might not hold for ultraPSA)
Salvage XRT – ongoing. Likely better with low threshold (ultrasensitive).
Post prostatectomy recurrence cutoff, location, treatment
PSA>0.2, DRE, BS, CT scan
Early – distant, Delayed – local
ASTRO-Phoenix Criteria
Nadir + 2ng/dL with a second confirmation to define failure
Who benefits from ADT for XRT
Intermediate and high risk benefit from long term (Bolla showed 3 years)
What isotopes are used for Brachy?
iodine (I) 125, Paladium (Pd) 103
PSA Bounce
Following XRT, 1/3 of men, not on ADT, occurs 1-3 yrs post XTR, lasts 6-18 months, Usually around 1 ng/dL
